Mrs. Bearden's Weekly Update

April 28, 2025
 

Dear Eagle Canyon Families,

Can you believe it is the last weekend of April? In four weeks, we will celebrate the last week of the 2024-25 school year.

The first week of CAASPP testing is over. I am incredibly proud of our students' dedication to taking their time and being their best.

Important Reminders

On Monday, our Orchestra students will perform at 6:00 p.m. at Chino High School.

If you have a kindergartner starting next year or know of someone with an incoming kindergartner, we are hosting our annual Kindergarten Readiness Night on Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. in the MPR. This is an excellent opportunity to find out what you can do between now and August to ensure your kindergartner is ready for school.

CAASPP TESTING

CAASPP Testing, the annual testing for Grades 3-6 students, began on Monday, April 21, and should be done by May 2, 2025. All makeup testing will occur as needed. Please prioritize attendance to ensure your child has the best opportunity to succeed. Also, ensuring they have plenty of rest, eat a protein-rich breakfast, and start the day with a positive mindset will set them up for success. If you would like to view the practice test to see what types of questions will be asked, please use the link below:

ATTEND TODAY, ACHIEVE TOMORROW

Eagle Canyon's student attendance will be a focus this year. Attendance in school leads to better performance for children when they are adults.

Please make illness the only reason for an absence. When your child misses school, they miss out on necessary instruction, and it takes a while for them to get caught up. Parents of students at risk of Chronic Absenteeism will have to meet with Mrs. Bearden or Mr. Choi to sign an agreement to improve overall attendance.

We missed our district attendance goal by .05%. Thank you for getting students to school on Tuesday and Wednesday, the two days we met the goal. In the Ayala Feeder, we are in last place for attendance. 😪 Let's continue to make attendance a priority.

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS ON THE MARQUEE

Another way you can support our PTA and celebrate your child's birthday is to purchase a birthday greeting for $25 that will be displayed on your child's birthday and run for one week. If interested, please stop by the office, complete the request, and submit the payment. Please be sure to plan. We need two weeks' notice before the birthday to ensure everything is timed correctly.

The kids get so excited seeing their birthday highlighted on the marquee. Out of safety, we will never publish your child's last name, only the initial.

APRIL CHARACTER TRAIT

Each month, Eagle Canyon will focus on teaching students about a character trait. We will share it during our Monday Morning Rallies, and teachers will reinforce it by recognizing one student each month for a monthly award.

SUPPORT EAGLE CANYON

A popular fundraising opportunity all families can support is Box Tops. Download the Box Top app on your phone. You must scan your receipts on the Box Top app within 14 days of purchasing. The app will let you know if any purchased items qualify to earn 10 cents per product. If there are not any items, you will still have an opportunity to enter the sweepstakes to win 500 bonus Box Tops. Every receipt has the potential to earn our school money.

As of today, our school has earned $60.80 this year. Our goal is to earn $500. Please return the coupons to the school office if you also get them. Be sure to select the grade level that you want to support. Thank you in advance for your support!
